One buyer. One purchasing story.

For the finance lead who needs to know what happened at the loading dock.

In this example, a small distributor orders ten cases of packing supplies. Eight arrive. The finance lead needs the PO, delivery record, and supplier documents together before preparing the QuickBooks bill—without asking the warehouse to reconstruct the day.

A short delivery should reach the books with its context intact.Illustrative business and quantities.

Where LineNow fits

QuickBooks Online Plus and Advanced have native purchase orders and support adding part of a PO to a bill or expense. See QuickBooks’s native workflow ↗

LineNow organizes the supplier conversation and delivery evidence before the accounting handoff. Your team still reviews the bill, account mappings, tax, freight, and any differences.

A good fit when buyers and receivers work separately from the bookkeeper, and delivery differences need resolving before bills reach the accounts.

01Keep the purchasing context

Keep the order current.

Send the supplier PO and retain the conversation as quantities, prices, and delivery dates change. Purchasing context stays with the order.

  • ✓Retain the supplier, pack quantity, and agreed cost.
  • ✓Keep later supplier changes with the current order.
  • ✓Preserve the original purchase context for the bookkeeper.

↳The original request and later changes are traceable.

Connection details

What goes to QuickBooks Online?

Connect the purchasing record to the accounts your bookkeeper uses.

Walk through your setup →
Bills and vendor credits
Send reviewed bills and vendor credits to QuickBooks Online using the supplier, item, and account mappings agreed during setup.
Optional inventory connection
A separate configured connection supports inventory synchronization for tracked items. QuickBooks quantities are company-wide, not independent stock totals for each location.
Timing and review
Your team reviews the transaction before sending it to accounting. A short delivery stays visible while the bookkeeper checks the supplier bill.
Getting started
Connect the QuickBooks Online company, review item and account mappings, and verify a purchase, receipt, and accounting transaction with the person responsible for your books.
